Pass the Remote | Fall 2016

Wednesday, October 12, 2016

Pass The Remote series is something I do about three times a year: Fall, Mid-season, and Summer. I love books, but they aren’t the only thing I love. I love checking out the new shows that are airing, seeing if there is anything good that I can add to my long list of TV series'. I am a little picky, so I don't watch every pilot, just the ones that I think I'll be interested in. I think when my list of current shows is up you’ll be able to see just how much I love TV too!

IN LOVE WITH…

WHAT IT’S ABOUT — The stories of different people all born on the same day and their connection to each other.

WHAT I THINK — The synopsis is kind of brief, and I think that it is the perfect way to go into this show. I am a huge fan of shows like Brothers & Sisters, Parenthood, etc. and this show filled the void left by them. I am so excited for this series and where it is going to go.

WHEN IT’S ON — Tuesdays @9:00PM on NBC

WHAT IT’S ABOUT — An unlikely trio traveling through time to stop unknown criminals in order to protect history as we know it.

WHAT I THINK — Timeless surprised me. I went in thinking I would really enjoy the plot, but also that it might be one of those show that ends up cancelled. I loved this show! I can’t wait for more!

WHEN IT’S ON — Mondays @9:00PM on NBC

WHAT IT’S ABOUT — A lower level Cabinet member becomes President of the United States after an attack kills everyone above him in the Presidential line of succession.

WHAT I THINK — This show is right up my alley. I’ve only watched the pilot so far, but I really enjoyed it. I can’t wait to see where the show goes.

WHEN IT’S ON — Wednesdays @9:00PM on ABC

VERDICT’S STILL OUT…

WHAT IT’S ABOUT — A comedy narrated by Katie, a strong-willed mother, raising her unique family in a wealthy town filled with perfect people.

WHAT I THINK — This show has some serious potential. I really like Katy Mixon and found the show pretty funny. Since I usually don’t stick with these types of shows, I have to see how it goes over the next few episodes.

WHEN IT’S ON — Tuesdays @7:30PM on ABC

BUSTS…

WHAT IT’S ABOUT — A woman gets sent to the "good place" and struggles to find what it means to be good.

WHAT I THINK — The good place was just a little too far out there for me. I felt like it was a little all over the place and there was nothing special about it. I'm bummed because I really like Kristen Bell!
